The grandmother of Tyler Robinson is breaking her silence for the first time.
She says that there is no way that her silent and reserved grandson killed the conservative activist. Speaking to The Daily Mail, Debbie Robinson claimed she never heard Tyler speak or discuss anything regarding politics, despite showing his father support for Donald Trump, whom Tyler dressed as for Halloween in 2017.
‘My son, his dad, is a Republican for Trump’- Debbie mentioned to the outlet. Most of my family members are Republicans. I don’t even know of any single person who is a Democrat. I am just so confused!’- she continued.
Kirk was shot in the neck on Tuesday during an outdoor Turning Point USA event that was called The American Comeback Tour at Utah Valley University in Orem. The shooting happened roughly 20 minutes after the event started, in front of a giant crowd featuring close to 3000 attendees.
The law enforcement agencies spoke to the Daily Mail about how it was Matt Robinson, Tyler’s father and a member of the family-run construction business, who reported his son to the authorities.point 290 |
